Title The Influence of Redd Distribution and Microhabitat Availability on the Distribution and Abundance of Young-of-the-Year Trout in the Green River, Utah
Creator Buntjer, Michael J.
Description Redd distribution, redd density, and physical habitat were used to explain the distribution and abundance of young-of-the-year (YOY) brown trout (Salmo trutta) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in the Green River, Utah. The importance of variables at both a microhabitat and macrohabitat scale were assessed using stepwise regression analysis.
